Two threads from one session, both of them the same shape: something was being decided from the wrong source. THE PROVIDERS WERE ASKED ABOUT A FOLDER. The picker sent the directory name to Deezer and MusicBrainz — the ripper's naming, carrying catalogue numbers, years and initials. "[WARP CD 156] Battles - Mirrored - 2007" matches nothing anywhere; "Mirrored" matches instantly. Across the reference library 501 of 515 records carry a tag album and 315 disagree with their folder, and no amount of cleaning turns "ACPP" into "Prospect Park, Brooklyn NY". The record's own claim now leads and the folder is the fallback, in one place (src/lib/import-title.js) that apply and the picker both read — apply already resolved it this way, and only the picker did not. The verdict judge had the same split: it compared candidates against the folder too, so an exact answer scored as mere containment and a clean match wore a warning. Identification also stops searching when searching cannot work. A folder named "1989 Pauls Boutique" is a hopeless query and an easy comparison, so after Deezer and MusicBrainz come back empty the artist's own catalogue is ranked by title similarity. Scoring rather than stripping is the point: 1989, 1984 and 2001 are real albums, and any cleaner aggressive enough to rescue Paul's Boutique would have destroyed them. Words split on whitespace with punctuation folded inside them, so "Paul's" stays one token; pressing vocabulary is ignored for scoring only; coverage is measured from both sides. 15 assertions pin the cases that would break it. Cached verdicts now carry the engine that produced them. A cached match is good forever, a cached "nothing found" only as good as the thing that looked — and nothing ever re-asked. Negatives from an older engine, or from a query that has since changed, are dropped and asked again. Soulseek was asked the same wrong question, with the artist said twice: "battles battles - mirrored - 2007". The server matches on ALL terms, so every leftover token narrows the search — that copy was only found because the peer happened to have 2007 in its path. The ladder now leads with the record's name and keeps the folder as the narrower rung behind it. AVAILABILITY OUTRANKS ENCODING. Candidate copies were ranked with avgBitrate above hasFreeSlot, and queue depth — captured on every candidate — was never read at all. A peer with no free slot and 277 people ahead beat a free peer with a queue of two, because its files reported a bitrate and the others reported none, and `?? 0` scores "didn't say" as the worst possible answer. Bitrate is now ignored between two fully-lossless copies, where it describes the material rather than the quality. And nothing ever gave up. Track 1 is requested alone so it is not queued behind eleven of our own files, the rest follow once the peer proves it will serve us, and a copy that makes no progress for 45s is abandoned for the next ranked one — cancelling the transfers it leaves, which used to trickle on forever. A refusal falls through to the next peer instead of ending the record. "Try another peer" is reachable while one is loading, which it never was. RE-IMPORTING BUILT A DUPLICATE FACTORY. Apply decided a track was already filed by comparing the destination's size to its source — but apply itself rewrites that file, embedding the chosen cover, so it is 582 KB larger from the moment it is written and the sizes can never match again. Every run laid down another " (n)" copy with its own library row: three runs left three of everything, 2.16 GB. A file at the destination that this run did not write is now simply an earlier import; within one run a repeated name is still a collision, which is what `kept` is for. ARTWORK FOLLOWS THE RECORD, ONLY THE AUDIO FOLLOWS THE CHOICE. Apply read art from whichever folder the audio came from, which for a kept found copy is the pen — and a downloaded album often carries no picture, so three records imported with no cover while their own files held a 1500px one. It also only ever looked at tags, never at the Folder.jpg the review had just offered as "yours". COVERS ARE RESAMPLED BY RUST, NOT BY THE COMPOSITOR. The webview was handed 2000px masters to paint 132px tiles — a 15x single-step reduction that reads as aliasing on photographic covers, and carries megabytes of base64 to draw a thumbnail. Artist portraits already had this exact fix; album covers never got it. getArt is now bounded by default and getArtMaster is the deliberate act, because ~60 places paint a cover and only two want real pixels: with the polarity the other way round, every surface anyone forgets is silently wrong. The fullscreen viewer also framed non-square art inside a square element, so its rounded corners and shadow wrapped 96px of nothing; it takes the artwork's own ratio now, bounded on both axes. Smaller, from the same passes: the preview play button is a real transport rather than a restart, and leaving a record silences its own preview without touching music started elsewhere; bucket chips navigate with per-lens memory instead of overwriting the saved resume position; Next counts from the record's real place in a queue that re-sorts under it, which was skipping one record for every one reviewed under a filter; a cover URL with nothing behind it is shown as the empty answer it is rather than a broken image in a pickable frame; write_tags returns early when there is nothing to change, instead of rewriting the whole file to write values it already had; and the import window has a Start over, which says what it costs before it costs it.
